Nice work Bohdan. I assume you've seen today's paper? I almost thought that page 1 was your shot. :unsure:

I kinda figured the "other" Nikon guy was Brent Linton from CJ.

Cheers,
Tom

Great stuff Bob!

Is ice racing a regular thing (weekly) during winter? Sounds like a lot of fun. It is hard for us warm climate creatures to imagine such great expanse of ice and snow! Looks like you don't have crowd problem in these events... brrrrr ;)

Thanks Jonathan.. Ice racing happens on Sunday around here. I guess years ago someone looked out at all the snow and ice that we have around here and asked himself " My God what do we do with all that ice! " So we had to do something to take advantage of the winter bounty that we enjoy.

And you're right brrrr....keeps the crowds away.
